Deep Friends

I was honored with a First Place finish in a juried art show help by The Savage Art Counsel on June 12th.

The piece I entered is called Deep Friends and as was created in Corel Painter.

The talent in this area is a amazing. The quality and creativity of the other entries is a delight to see. This a yearly event and if you are in the area and you love great art, you should make plans to attend.

And if you're out and about, please stop at the Savage Art Studios. Again, some wonderful artist rent space there and the art displayed is breath taking. http://www.savageartstudios.com/

This started out as a practice piece about Martian space ships attacking this ship but, I thought it would be a cool illustration of a 'freshly' sunken destroyer. I'm not sure I've ever seen an illustration like this before. That's oil floating on the surface, I might go back and make it darker or something. It's not really working for me.
